Sims
IN LSAMP Ivy Tech Program Coordinator
LSAMP is an alliance-based program where the overall goal is to assist universities and colleges in diversifying the nation’s STEM workforce by increasing the number of STEM baccalaureate and graduate degrees awarded to populations historically underrepresented in these disciplines: African Americans, Hispanic Americans, American Indians, Alaska Natives, Native Hawaiians, and Native Pacific Islanders. In his current capacity, he works to recruit, retain, and transition underrepresented minorities from Ivy Tech Community College to four-year universities or STEM-related industries.
